About Fate of Dawn
Fate of Dawn is Singapore’s first Xianxia (Celestial Romance) novel, written by Xu Yi Gongzi. The story unfolds in a new era of peace and prosperity following a war between the Gods and Demons. Tian Di, the ruler of the Heavens, has a daughter, Princess Lingxi, who is kind-hearted, generous, and longs for the freedom to love. Despite being betrothed since childhood to Lu Qingli of Yao Wang Mansion—who spent five hundred years in the human world—Lingxi is reluctant to marry him as they have never met.
Lu Qingli is a devoted, straightforward man with a mission to save the world. Though he yearns for love, his traditional values run deep. When Lingxi is sent to the human realm, they meet for the first time, but no romantic connection forms. Meanwhile, the demon world is preparing to strike again. As war looms over the three realms, the future of the simple Lu Qingli and the inexperienced Princess Lingxi hangs in the balance. Will their love finally blossom amid the chaos?
